Among these, the Pro Max model stands out with its impressive features such as 17EV Log video, 4K/240fps recording, a 200MP ZEISS telephoto camera, and an optional 400mm-equivalent lens extender. These devices are set to hit the Chinese market on September 24, although global pricing and availability details remain uncertain. Vivo has consistently raised the bar with its X-series phones, with the X300 Pro and X300 Ultra models showcasing exceptional photography features. The new X500 series continues this trend by placing a greater focus on video capture.",
